Musicqueue

About

Musicqueue is a CGI music jukebox using external tools to play the files. Because of that it supports several formats. It supports two modes, enqueue & vote. In vote mode users can vote on music and the song with the most votes is played. In enqueue mode songs are enqueued and the one that's been in the playlist the longest is played. It is themable through CSS & has many configuration options.

It was originally developed for the LAN-party Midwinter in Umeå, Sweden. So it's perfect for LAN-parties, but can of course be used for other occasions.
